Deterministic Operations Research: Models and Methods in Linear Optimization

“Dr. Phillips has used other texts, but he is especially enthused with this book, influenced by student feedback. He says, “Algorithmic ideas are introduced at a pace that emphasizes and encourages intuitive understanding.”  (Informs Journal on Computing, 1 June 2012)

"The book is aimed at serving upper-undergraduate and graduate students of all fields as a comprehensive textbook or as a reference for studies on the subject." (Zentralblatt MATH, 2011)

"The result is a clear-cut resource for understanding three cornerstones of deterministic operations research: modeling real-world problems as linear optimization problems; designing the necessary algorithms to solve these problems; and using mathematical theory to justify algorithmic development." (InfoTECH Spotlight - TMCnet, 8 February 2011)
